I just think it's ugly and cartoonish. I like the futuristic look of the 140, but as a different model not a Camaro.

Back to the origional Camaro Concept... I like it... but it reminds me of all the Ricer Car Cartoons you see at the top of their respective forums. Example - |

Great, so, we have an article with guesswork images (yeah, cause those have never been different than final) with pretty much nothing useful in the performance area... Yeah, I'll pass on opinion until there's actual real data. Until that time, it's just a drawing.
The car could very well get beaten by a smart car at this point. |

Waaaay too much 5th gen in there. I'd be willing to bet the 6th gen looks more like the 130R concept than this rendering. I'm looking forward to following the 6th gen development. I just won't pre-order before the car is produced like I did with the 5th gen. They got me good on that one.

Looking at it a little more, there are SOME aspects of this that I like and even think would look good on the current Camaro. The headlights are all kinds of cool. As the article says, they emulate the '69 RS style headlights. And the hood is really cool. I've always thought that some kind of heat extracting vents would look good on it. I've just never seen any that I think don't look like they came off of a NOPIfied Civic (No offense ZL1 owners, the ZL1's hood fits it, I just am not crazy about it still). These however, these fit the car. They are a throwback to the originals, yet they follow the sleek chisled lines of the new hood.
...But I still think it looks like a Chevy Civic. Maybe a Chevy Civic SI...

Booooosted.

If that were a true concept consideration I'm confident it would get fat and heavy by production.

Of course we must all keep in mind this is just someones imagination, and may be nothing close, but that said I hope that GM does pay attention to this thread! Quote:
I have to say...I like it very much, and it is quite close to what I would be hoping for with the 6th gen assuming they wanted to make at an evolution of the 5th gen. I like it from all sides and the raise in the hood still gives it a bit of a muscle car type appearance. I even love the rear end...its just GREAT! Good power, on a lighter chassis, with this body.....I'm SOLD. Chevy...are you listening???

I think pete is right. I think the 6th gen is going to be truly something new. Don't forget that is a magazines rendering. Not GM. I plan on this 2010 I have now being my last Camaro purchase....well, new style. I still want a late 60s. I want to end up back in a vette or a V sedan in a year or two.

The simple fact that you're already sold tells me that you and I won't have much of a common ground to really discuss why I think it's too early to be sold on it. How can you be sold because it's lighter and has more power? None of that is fact, yet. |
